I LEFT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND GOT ON 295 WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANGING, THEN A SHORT TIME LATER I LOST MY BRAKES. COME TO FIND OUT THAT I WAS TOLD THE SHOCK BROKE AND BECAUSE OF THAT IT BROKE MY BRAKE LINE AND THE SUPPORT FOR THE SUSPENSION WAS ALL RUSTED OUT. I WAS TOLD BY A FRIEND OF MINE ABOUT A RECALL INVOLVING THE SUSPENSION AND WHAT I HAD DESCRIBED WAS THE PROBLEM. SO I CALL ISUZU AND THEY TOLD ME THAT AS OF DEC. 2012 THAT THEY WERE NO LONGER FIXING ANY MORE VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE AND THAT THERE IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO. WELL SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED I NEVER RECEIVED AND RECALL NOTICE. I COULD HAVE HAD A VERY BAD ACCIDENT, CONSIDERING I HAD 2 PEOPLE CUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. THIS IS BS. I CANT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND IM PRETTY SURE THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS TOO MUCH RUST TO BE FIXED. SO NOW I DON'T HAVE A VEHICLE AND NEED ONE. *TR

WE HAVE A 1999 ISUZU RODEO MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 25 MPH DURING THE RAIN WHEN SHE GENTLY APPLIED THE BRAKES, SHE HEARD A NOISE THE RODEO BEGAN SLIDING CAUSING AN IMPACT WHICH RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. VARIOUS OTHER TIMES WE WOULD BE DRIVING AND ESPECIALLY DURING WET ROAD CONDITIONS THE BRAKES MADE A NOISE CAUSING THE TIRES TO ROTATE PREMATURELY IN AN UNCONTROLLABLE SLIDING MOTION.IN 2011 WE TOOK OUR RODEO IN ON RECALL NO. 10V-436, (EXCESSIVE CORROSION MAY RESULT IN THE LEFT OR RIGHT REAR SUSPENSION LOWER LINK BRACKET BECOMING DETACHED FROM THE FRAME, WHICH CAN AFFECT VEHICLE HANDLING AND POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH.) THE DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THE INSPECTION WHICH WAS DETERMINED THAT THE RECALL SHOULD NOT BE PERFORMED. DUE TO EXCESSIVE CORROSION THE REINFORCEMENT BRACKET REMEDY WOULD NOT BE APPROPRIATE. IN ORDER TO PERFORM THIS RECALL THE BODY IS DETACHED FROM THE FRAME AND IF CORROSION IS PRESENT ON THE FRAME THIS RECALL WOULD ONLY CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGES WEAKENING THE FRAME MAKING IT UNSAFE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. THE FRAMES SHOULD BE RECALLED ALSO! THE FRAMES ALSO HAVE EXCESSIVE CORROSION AND ALSO ONCE A FRAME IS COMPROMISED IT'S WEAKENED! BY DOING THIS RECALL IT DIMINSHES THE INTEGRITY OF THE FRAME ANYWAY. THEREFORE, THIS RECALL IS NOT A RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS IT'S A BIGGER SAFETY ISSUE AND PUTS MANY CONSUMERS AT RISK! AS FOR ISUZU PROVIDING THE CONSUMERS WITH AN APPROPRIATE REMEDY... THIS IS NOT HAPPENING! *TR

I HAVE A '99 ISUZU RODEO AND TWO YEARS AGO A RECALL WAS SENT OUT FOR THE ABS CONTROL MODULE. WE GOT THAT RECALL PERFORMED, THOUGH THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CONTROL MODULE. NOW IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS AND THE ABS CONTROL MODULE IS BAD AND CAUSING THE BRAKES TO PERFORM UNSAFE. I CALLED ISUZU AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT IT'S NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE THE REPLACEMENT PART. I FEEL THAT THEIR ACTIONS DICTATE THAT THEY PUT IN A PART THAT DID NOT MEET UP TO SPEC, SINCE THE ORIGINAL PART THAT WAS REPLACED LASTED 6-7 YEARS AND WAS STILL GOOD. NOW I'M FORCE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY FOR REPAIRS THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPEN IN THE FIRST PLACE NOT TO MENTION THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART ONLY COMES FROM ISUZU AND KNOWING NOW WHAT I KNOW, IT'LL ONLY LAST A YEAR OR SO AND FAIL AGAIN. I JUST HOPE NOTHING BAD HAPPENS DUE TO IT. *TR

1999 IZUSU RODEO WITH MULTIPLE PROBLEMS: IE: ABS BRAKE LIGHT WON'T GO OUT. HAVE HAD VEHICLE SERVICED HOWEVER WHEN COMING TO A STOP, VEHICLE SLIDES. GAS GAUGE LIGHT WON'T GO OUT...TANK IS FULL...REPAIR PRICE-CRAZY. HIGH IDLE-FOOT ON BRAKE AND VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD. WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE PICKS UP SPEED QUICKLY. WINDSHIELD WIPERS ERRATIC-SOMETIMES THEY WORK, SOMETIMES THEY DON'T AND SOMETIMES THEY JUST STOP RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDOW. ALL OF THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES. I'M FINDING THAT SOME OWNERS FELL UNDER A RECALL TO FIX THESE ITEMS BUT I DON'T. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. DO I HAVE TO KILL OR BE KILLED FIRST ESPECIALLY WITH THE BREAKING ISSUES? *JB UPDATED 10/23/07 *TR

HUMMING/RATTLING SOUND COMING FROM UNDERCARRIAGE OF THESE COMPLAINTS ARE POSTED ON SEVERAL COMPLAINT WEBSITES AND THEY ALL PERTAIN TO MY 1999 RODEO AS WELL AS THOUSANDS OF OTHERS. MY RODEO WAS PURCHASED IN 2003 AND I WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY RECALLS EXCEPT FOR THE ABS ONE AND I LEARNED ABOUT THAT FROM A RELATIVE WHO HAS THE SAME VEHICLE. IF SOMETHING BREAKS DOWN OR STOPS WORKING ON HERS I CAN EXPECT IT TO OCCUR WITH MINE OR VISA VERSA. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE..I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE TO PURCHASE AN ISIZU RODEO IF MY LIFE DEPENDED ON IT. EVERYTIME I TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC THERE IS A RODEO IN THE GARAGE WAITING TO BE WORKED ON. THE MECHANIC SHAKES HIS HEAD.. *TR

THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATION LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DO NOT FUNCTION. CHECK THE MESSAGE BOARDS ON THE INTERNET AND YOU WILL SEE ALOT OF THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. ALSO THE EGR VALVE PROBLEM WHERE THE VEHICLE CLOGS WITH CARBON BUILD UP CAUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENLY AND THE VEHICLE STALLS OUT. THE PROBLEMS HAPPEN TO ENOUGH OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLES THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. *NM

ABS INSTRUMENT WARNING LIGHT IS LIT AND THE ABS SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING. NO PULSING DURING BRAKING ACTION AND I BELIEVE THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT STOPPING AS QUICKLY OR WITH THE SAME ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE THAT I HAD WHEN THE ABS SYSTEM WAS WORKING. SOFT PEDAL HAS BEEN ENCOUNTERED TWICE BUT NOT AT ANY OTHER TIME. THERE WAS A DOT RECALL THAT I HAD THE ISUZU DEALER CORRECT ON 5-5-2003. THEY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM UNDER THE ABS RECALL, CAMPAIGN NUMBER 021002000 DATED 2002-JUN-03 WITH 47228 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAVE RETURNED, BUT BRAKING IS SPORADIC AND INTERMITTENT. THE WARNING LIGHT WILL OCCASIONALLY GO OUT BUT COMES BACK ON WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THE BRAKES INSPECTED, ALL FOUR BRAKES REPLACED, AND NEW BRAKE FLUID INSTALLED ALL WITHIN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. NOTHING HAS CHANGED WITH THE VEHICLES BRAKING BEHAVIOR OR THE WARNING LIGHT BEING LIT. I HAVE CONTACTED AMERICAN ISUZU MOTORS INC. BY PHONE ON 6-27-06 AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ABS PROBLEM SINCE THEY DID ADDRESS AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE ON 5-5-2003. I THINK THAT THE ABS PROBLEM IS STILL AN ISUZU ONGOING PROBLEM ESPECIALLY AFTER READING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FROM OTHER OWNERS IN VARIOUS INTERNET CHAT ROOMS AS WELL AS MY OWN EXPERIENCE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *JB
